CIA Director John Ratcliffe said there could still be indictments and prosecutions tied to the so-called Russian collusion hoax that targeted President Donald Trump — and he named names.
Appearing on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo, Ratcliffe accused Hillary Clinton of orchestrating the scheme to falsely link Trump to Russia through what became the now-discredited Steele Dossier. He also said former President Barack Obama and top officials from his administration — including FBI Director James Comey and CIA Director John Brennan — lied under oath about their involvement.
“This was a Hillary Clinton campaign scheme,” Ratcliffe said, accusing her of pushing false claims of Russian collusion to damage Trump’s 2016 campaign. Clinton served as Obama’s secretary of state.
Bartiromo asked directly: “So, what I think I hear you saying is, there is still an opportunity for indictments, potential prosecutions, accountability from those people who may have lied under oath like John Brennan, James Comey, and perhaps Hillary Clinton.”
Ratcliffe responded: “Well, that’s why I’ve made the referrals that I have.”
that I have.”

He continued: “[Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard] has made referrals. And why we’re going to continue to share the intelligence that would support the ability of our Department of Justice to make fair and just, bring fair and just claims, against those who have perpetrated this hoax against the American people and this stain on this country.”
